Thorsten - just downloaded and fired up this version and the zoom controls that normally reside at the top of the right-hand scroll bar have disappeared. Is there some option to get them back, have the zoom functions moved elsewhere, or is this a bug?

MacBook Pro, Intel Core i7, 2.66 GHz. Mac OS X 10.6.8.

Thorsten - I notice in this version that when I use the mirror tool, certain elements such as dimensions do not get mirrored, they are left in-situ. I was sure in previous versions that everything was affected by the mirror tool - but on checking with the oldest version I have installed (6.1.1 X) I find it also leaves dimensions untouched.

I think this is a bug I have not noticed since about v6, because other tools in the same part of the palette do move everything including dimensions.

Incidentally I am pleased to see that the "open recent file" sub-menu now works as expected with the latest file at the top, and the choice in the preferences to show or not the full path.

Attachments :Hi Rowland,
this is due the change to Cocoa calls. The scroll bars will hide automatically in the future. So, there are no icons allowed. You can currently access zoom in/out with cursor up/down.

Hi Thorsten,

Is that cursor up/down accompanied by a key press? Many times I simply
want to move my cursor up and down without zooming!

Just downloaded my copy of 7.5.1.

you can just scroll the drawing with the trackpad or magic mouse.
